The first minister says that Scotland is "currently at a delicate and fragile point", but hopes we are in a "transition" to a different way of dealing with Covid.

She says vaccinations are opening the path to a less restrictive way of dealing with Covid, which is driven less by case numbers.

However, she says not all adults have been fully vaccinated with two doses so far. When the so-called Indian variant, which is more infectious, is added to the mix it "compounds" the challenge, she says. This variant now accounts for well over half of daily cases.

"All of this means that at this critical stage to avoid being knocked off course completely we must still err on the side of caution," Ms Sturgeon adds.

There were 478 positive cases of Covid-19 reported yesterday, representing 3.1% of total number of tests.

That brings the total number of cases to 236,389.

106 people are in hospital, which is four fewer than yesterday.

10 people are in ICU, two more than yesterday.

No deaths reported were meaning the total number under the daily definition remains at 7,669.

As of 07:30 this morning 3,267,290 had their first dose of the vaccine - 72% of the adult population and up 16,152 since yesterday.

30,978 had their second dose yesterday - a total of 2,750,231 - 46% of the adult population.

In the next few minutes, Nicola Sturgeon will update MSPs on the latest coronavirus developments.

She is expected to say which areas will move down to level one next week and whether Glasgow can move to level two at the weekend.

The number of children waiting at least a year for mental health treatment has almost trebled since the pandemic hit.

In March 2020 there were 695 young people waiting at least 52 weeks for their first appointment with Child and Adolescent Mental Health Services (CAHMS).

New figures show that by March this year the figure was 2,012.

The Scottish Children's Services Coalition (SCSC) said the figures were the "worst on record".

Renfrewshire and East Renfrewshire both currently have case rates higher than Glasgow.

Concern has recently been raised about rising infections in Dundee, which have increased from a very low level in a relatively short space of time.

A seven-day average case rate of 50 per 100,000 people has previously been seen as a threshold for a move from level three to level two, while 20 cases per 100,000 is the target for level one easing.
